Biblical Burial Box Reveals Clue About Death of Jesus
« on: January 17, 2012, 01:31:08 pm »
Articles like this one irritate me no end.  The thread title I used is, as you will see, the actual title of the article.  However, when you read the article, there is no evidence of Jesus to be found.

I'm disappointed that Discovery News has taken the same road as Discovery Channel with sensationalized articles and misleading titles.

I saw that, and took that into consideration.  However, that still doesn't excuse Discovery News for putting up such a misleading heading to the article, even if that was the heading on the original Fox article.  And actually, in reading the article, it doesn't actually try to persuade the reader to think that the artifact does reveal anything about the death of Jesus, only that it was linked to someone that had ties according to the Bible to his death. 

Like I said earlier, it disappoints me that Discovery News would stoop to publishing inaccurate headings.

Which is a part of the Discovery Network, so there you go.

I am disappointed in the Discovery Network in general. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they - at one time - actually produce shows about ACTUAL history & science, instead of supernatural mumbo-jumbo?
